Altcoins Soar as Bitcoin Smugly Sits Above $97K

In the capricious realm of cryptocurrencies, the sector has played a modest game of seesaw, its market capitalization as predictable as yesterday’s weather.

Bitcoin‘s market capitalization has swelled to a colossal $1.93 trillion, while its dominance over the altcoins remains as steadfast as ever at 59.6% (per the all-seeing CoinMarketCap).

Mantra (OM) Marches to the Beat of Its Own Drum

In the altcoin arena, Mantra (OM) has stolen the show with a 35% surge, reaching a dazzling all-time high of $7.90. Bravo, OM!

Ripple‘s XRP also joined the party, jumping 8% to a two-week peak of $2.82, likely bolstered by the US SEC’s nod to 21Share’s XRP Trust ETF conversion. 🎉

Other notable cryptocurrencies have seen their own modest rises, though none as spectacular as OM and XRP. Among them are Chainlink (LINK), Dogecoin (DOGE), and the ever-entertaining Shiba Inu (SHIB).

On the flip side, Ethereum (ETH), Binance Coin (BNB), Solana (SOL), and Cardano (ADA) have taken a slight beating. Such is the fickle nature of the crypto game.

The total cryptocurrency market capitalization stands at a robust $3.24 trillion, a mere 0.3% increase for the day. Ho-hum. 🌙
